Junior Research Fellow

This role is ideal for motivated candidates holding a BE/BTech/ME/MTech/MS/MCA/MSc degree with a valid GATE/NET qualification in Computer Science, Data Analytics, Electronics, or Electrical Engineering. The position is particularly suited for individuals with a strong interest and some exposure to cybersecurity research, ethical hacking, network measurement platforms, machine learning frameworks, and proficiency in Python/Linux environments. It's an excellent opportunity for those looking for project-based research experience in a leading academic institution.

Candidates who do not meet the essential educational qualifications, particularly the GATE/NET requirement, should not apply. Those without foundational knowledge or desirable exposure to network security, machine learning, or relevant programming skills (Python/Linux) may find the technical demands challenging. This is a contractual project position, making it unsuitable for individuals seeking permanent government employment.

Working as a Junior Research Fellow at IIT (ISM) Dhanbad, an Institute of National Importance, offers significant academic prestige and a robust research environment. This project on AI-Driven Offensive Reconnaissance Framework for Critical Internet Infrastructure provides exposure to cutting-edge cybersecurity research, enhancing the candidate's profile for future academic pursuits or advanced roles in security and data science within industry or government sectors. The tenure-bound nature means focused, high-impact research experience.
